When it was dark, Han Mingxiu took advantage of the darkness and quietly went to Uncle Zhou's house.

She was going to deliver firewood. She originally planned to go tomorrow, but then she thought about it. Uncle Zhou's house has no firewood at all. Even if she gave them food and no firewood, they couldn't cook.

Uncle Zhou was seriously injured, and Aunt Zhou had to stay by his side to take care of him.

Although it is no longer the twelfth lunar month, it is still very cold. There is no house with firewood burning. It is torture to stay for 1 minute and 1 second more. Something unexpected is likely to happen.

Just in case, she still sent firewood to them to be safe.

Sure enough, when he arrived at Zhou's house, Zhou's house was just as he expected, it was cold and pitch-black, not only did it not have firewood for cooking and heating, but it didn't even have candles and oil lamps for lighting.

Seeing that Han Mingxiu was here today, Aunt Zhou also brought them a basket of wooden sacks and a half-silk bag of coal, grabbed Han Mingxiu's hand excitedly, and kept thanking her.

Han Mingxiu pretended to take out a few candles from the bottom of the basket and said, "As soon as I think you have no oil lamps, I will bring you a few candles, you can keep them to light up, right?"

"No need, it's already good if we can eat enough and not freeze, what else is there to light up?"

Aunt Zhou held Han Mingxiu's hand and said she would not accept her candle.

She felt that she already owed too much to others, and was embarrassed to ask for more.

"Just accept it, otherwise if my Uncle Zhou has something to do at night, it will be inconvenient for you to touch the dark..." Han Mingxiu insisted on stuffing the candle into her hand.

"But... candles aren't cheap, we really can't ask for your things anymore, we really don't have anything to pay you back..." Aunt Zhou said with a murmuring.

"Auntie, the most important thing you should consider now is how to heal Uncle Zhou's injury, and don't worry about the rest of the little things..." Han Mingxiu insisted on stuffing the candle into her hand.

The two were pushing, and in the darkness, there was a sudden sound of urgency.

"Why do you want to... help us?"

"Oh, Lao Zhou, are you awake?"

Aunt Zhou heard that the person on the kang woke up, and without bothering to pull Han Mingxiu, she walked to the edge of the kang in three steps and two steps, and asked with concern, "How do you feel? Does the wound still hurt? Did you urinate? ?"

The man on the kang said in a muffled voice, "I'm fine, help me sit up."

What he meant by sitting up was not sitting on the kang like a normal person, but adding two pillows under his back to keep his body tilted. Compared with lying down just now, he just changed his posture slightly.

After helping him sit down, Aunt Zhou had time to introduce him.

"Lao Zhou, this is Comrade Xiao Han who Lao Gao introduced to us, Xiao Han, this is my lover, Lao Zhou."

"Hello Uncle Zhou!"

Han Mingxiu couldn't see Zhou Xilong's face clearly, but just by looking at the shadowy figure, he could feel his downfall and desolation. Seeing that the hero of the past had fallen to this level, Han Mingxiu was very sad and respectful. greeted him.

Zhou Xilong hummed, indicating that he heard her greeting, and then asked seriously, "You haven't answered me yet, why do you want to help us?"

As soon as Aunt Zhou heard her man's tone was so serious, she was afraid that Han Mingxiu would be angry, so she hurriedly poked him carefully, and said in a low voice, "What are you talking about? People are kind enough to help us, why are you asking them? Like It's like you don't trust people."

"It's okay, Aunt Zhou, people are unpredictable, and it's right for Uncle Zhou to be more vigilant." Han Mingxiu was afraid that Aunt Zhou would feel sorry for her, so he comforted her.

Afterwards, he sincerely said to Zhou Xilong, "Uncle Zhou, I help you because I think you are a good person. Now, you have been treated unfairly. I can't help you anything else, so I have to do my best. , try to keep you from starving and freezing, I have no other intentions and no other purpose, just a little respect for you, please rest assured."

These words came from Han Mingxiu's heart. She said it very sincerely.

Really, even if he doesn't want to be repaid in the future, Han Mingxiu is willing to subsidize him for free.

Zhou Xilong was very moved when he heard Han Mingxiu's recognition and recognition of him. He looked at the silhouette of the blazing girl in the dark and said, "Whether we are wronged or not, but at present we are sinners, girl, Are you not afraid of being implicated by us when you interact with people like us and help people like us?"

"Don't be afraid!" Han Mingxiu said, "I will deal with you carefully, and I won't let others grab the handle."

She said it very well

There is a lid on her back basket. If anyone suspects that she is coming to question her, she will take the things in the back basket to the space. At that time, she will be a country girl with a diabolo basket on her back. Who can take her and what can I do? ?

With the magic weapon of the space cheat, of course she doesn't have to be afraid of anything.

After that, there was silence. After a long time, Zhou Xilong's desolate voice sounded again, "Little girl, thank you, didn't you think that today, there are still people who trust me and respect me, hehe, hehe..."

He smiled wryly, with the vicissitudes of life and loss in his laughter.

Han Mingxiu knew that he was bitter and that he was aggrieved and depressed, so he persuaded the explanation, "Uncle Zhou, don't be sad, it won't be like this forever. Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. You are for the country and the people. Contributions made will eventually be recognized by people!"

"Well, this sentence is well said, I love to hear it!"

When Zhou Xilong heard Han Mingxiu's words, his heart suddenly brightened a lot.

In the past few years, all he has heard are words that humiliated him, scolded him, consoled and persuaded him like Han Mingxiu, and he seldom heard it.

That is to say, he has a big heart. If he had a small heart and fell into the dust from such a high position, he would always be humiliated, beaten, scolded and scolded by those nameless rats, and he would have been suffocated to death...

"You are right. Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. I must live well and live until the day when justice comes!"

Zhou Xilong shook his arms, as if to cheer himself up.

Han Mingxiu smiled and said, "Uncle, you're right to think so, I bet that day won't be too far away, you two should take good care of yourselves and prepare for a new life, otherwise you will break down your body. Now, even if we usher in a new life, what's the point of it!"

"Well, we will take care of ourselves, thank you, Comrade Xiao Han." Zhou Xilong said moved.
